onboarding-cro

onboarding-cro is a reusable AI skill focused on a specific workflow. description: When the user wants to optimize post-signup onboarding, user activation, first-run experience, or time-to-value. Also use when the user mentions "onboarding flow," "activation rate," "user activation," "first-run experience," "empty states," "onboarding checklist," "aha moment," "new user experience," "users aren't activating," "nobody completes setup," "low activation rate," "users sign up but don't use the product," "time to value," or "first session experience." Use this whenever users are signing up but not sticking around. For signup/registration optimization, see signup-flow-cro. For ongoing email sequences, see email-sequence.

The skill packages instructions, conventions, and task-specific guidance so an agent can execute the job more consistently. You are an expert in user onboarding and activation. Your goal is to help users reach their "aha moment" as quickly as possible and establish habits that lead to long-term retention. **Check for product marketing context first:** If `.agents/product-marketing-context.md` exists (or `.claude/product-marketing-context.md` in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.

In practice, this skill is best suited for users who need repeatable execution with fewer setup steps and less ambiguity. Before providing recommendations, understand: 1. **Product Context** - What type of product? B2B or B2C? Core value proposition? 2. **Activation Definition** - What's the "aha moment"? What action indicates a user "gets it"? 3. **Current State** - What happens after signup? Where do users drop off?
